About

My name is Ian Sheh, I am a film/digital photographer based Vancouver, Canada. I hope this site has helped you create better scans using Vuescan.

This process was created out of the need for better scans from Vuescan. With the help of many contributors and commenters, I believe we have found the best way to utilize Vuescan. If you would like to view the original post with all of the additional comments, you can find it here.

ICC Profiles

Pre-generated ICC film profiles are difficult to come by. Profiles are specific to scanners and film type. In an effort to make ICC film profiles more accessible, below are a few pre-generated profiles for particular scanners.

Film Presets

Film presets have become popular. The initial presets were created for mobile phones and digital photographers to bring some nostalgia to their images. As of late, there have been high-quality film presets created by companies who employ the best scanners and profiling equipment to create accurate film presets for digital images. Companies like Mastin Labs, and Totally Rad! are leading the way. These presets are a useful tool for the hybrid film/digital photographer who need their film and digital images colour-matched.
